Straight from the heart of Japan's Tsukiji Fish Market, a hardcore area where fresh fish is carved up on the daily, Kazuyoshi Watanabe collaborated with Hobby Stock to create the Maguro sushi-making toy.
A silver tuna fish model with 10 separate components can be assembled onto the accompanying stand in order to be kept as a prize on display. Toy swords, chopping blocks and more are included as well so children can dissect the toy tuna with the ease and grace of a professional sushi maker.
Great as a gift for sushi-lovers as well as aspiring chefs, the realistic Maguro sushi-making model kit is an educational toy that teaches people about how to slice and dice fresh fish for consumption.
